Re: [DML] Help--Lost all Brakelights! Fixed, sort of



My guess is that you connected the wrong wires from the 3rd light that
made the brake lights short out. Believe it or not LEDs do have a
positive side and a negative side, if they are hooked up wrong they
will burn out in a matter of seconds/minutes-it really depends on
certain things. I never knew this and ruined a lot of LEDs a few years
ago, now I know. Recheck you wires, check out your bulbs, and also
test the 3rd light on a car battery to see whats going on. Also check
out the rear harness that connectes the rear lights to the rest of the
system, the plug is black and located next to the coil. Perhaps
something melted or is dirty, etc. Hope this maybe helps -Dani B.
